It’s no secret that LinkedIn is widely considered one of the top social media platforms for B2B marketers.

As illustrated in the fourth annual B2B Content Marketing: 2014 Benchmarks, Budgets, and Trends report, put out by the Content Marketing Institute and MarketingProfs, 91% of B2B content marketers are using LinkedIn to distribute their content. And in Holger Schulze’s 2013 B2B Content Marketing Trends Report, LinkedIn tops the list as the most effective social media platform for delivering content.

Today’s Google logo is a hat-tip to British logician and philosopher, and inventor of the Venn diagram, John Venn on his 180th birthday.

Born on this date in 1834, Venn came up with the idea of using circles to sort groups to illustrate their relationship to each other sometime around 1880

Offering users two circles, each with its own group of categories, the interactive logo delivers an answer combining category pairings via a Venn-diagram. For example, choosing “Sea Life” from the first group of categories, and “Has a Shell” from the second, gives you a sea turtle as shown in the following video:

Once the Venn diagram result is displayed, users can then go to “John Venn” search results, replay to choose new categories, or share their Venn-diagram result via Facebook, Twitter or Google

Starting today, some customers will begin to see the new Bing Ads user interface announced last week. All customers will have the new look in the coming weeks.

The new interface design is cleaner with fewer competing colors and a bigger report canvas. The focus of the new design is to make data visualization and help customers be more efficient, said Jamie Chung a Program Manager with the Bing Ads UI team by phone last week.

Chung says the look is the result of a process recently adopted by the engineering team that starts with hearing from customers rather than designing a product first and then getting feedback second. The new interface will have areas for users to be able to communicate directly with engineers.

Feedback already incorporated into the new interface in the past weeks are a tighter header space so more data can be seen on the canvas. The left navigation bar can be minimized so more columns are visible on the screen without having to scroll.
